Yesterday was a big day for me. I had my doctor's appointment, another XRAY, and received good news that my bone had "filled" in. Now I am able to start bearing weight. The incision had scabbed over (even though I don't see a scab and it still burns). I did alot of walking yesterday with my crutches. I am way overweight so I only put about 75% of my weight on the foot. This morning, it is a little sore. When I step down, it feels like I am walking on bars or a very sharp, uneven surface. I called the doctor's office and was told this is because I haven't been walking. They also gave me the okay to start using my stationary bike. I can already see the muscle in my lower leg start to develop. I had nothing but flab there two weeks ago. This is going to be a long recovery but I am at least starting a new phase and am encouraged about that.
Have a great day and God Bless.
